Anyone else like the ongoing joke that they show only the neck down and most of the time focus on the boobs of one reoccurring character and NEVER show her face. I found that just hilarious.

YES, Devil's and Realist. I didn't know that came out over there. Wonder if it can get picked up in the UK eventually.

Love seeing some love for William being the star of the show. Cool

I remember hearing awhile back that the Ben-to home releases in Japan actually showed the character's face. That not true?

I've been reading a lot of positives reviews for Ben-To (I always want to call it Ben 10) and this is another one making me want to pick up the series.

Laughing Really?

Well, I'm going to be buying Ben-To when it is released here. Just under a month away from Madman's release.

I enjoyed Devils and Realist but it suffered very badly from ongoing manga syndrome. I've been buying the manga and enjoying it a lot more. It's much less rushed and the characters actually have time to develop.

I would've liked Devil's and the Realist if it adapted the end of that arc better. It was a decent stopping point if they did.
